Whole school should be fired.

Quote from an acrticle about this steaming pile of transphobic shit:

“During an event that prepares children to survive an attack by actual assailants, she was treated as if she was so much of a danger to peers that she was left exposed and vulnerable”

They made her sit in the gym while everyone else was hiding.
Putting priority on noone entering the opposite-gender locker room in a life-or-very-violent-death situation is messed up enough as it is, but they told A CHILD that because she’s trans she is more dangerous to her classmates than a psychopath with a firearm.

dear americans who can vote.

hello friendly trans english boy hitting you here. you may have seen that president trump is considering making the gender on your birth certificate UNCHANGEABLE from birth. meaning trans people cannot adjust the sex to their correct one.

this is a big risk for any trans person across the world but ESPECIALLY the ones in america. it creates problems with them going into their correct toilet (their gendered one), same-sex groupings on school trips, same-sex schooling and so many other things. this is a massive problem.

if you are of voting age PLEASE the trans community URGE you to vote against this law. a trans person should be able to adjust the sex on their birth certificate, it is a human right for EVERYONE of every single race or grouping to be accepted. this is discriminatory. keep trans rights in tact. help trans youth. they need you.

thank you.

hi, welcome to the united fucking states, how may we discriminate you?

Everyone needs to see this. We can’t just let them discriminate against us, we have rights and we should fight for them. Our government is actively trying to push down minorities and no one is talking about it. This affects me and many of my friends. This could affect you or a friend you have. Even if this doesnt affect you, SPREAD THIS INFORMATION AND BE AN ALLY. We’re not gonna live in a broken country where freedom and equality is preached but only certain groups have those rights to equality and liberty. We shouldn’t have to live in fear of what human right our government is gonna strip away from us next. Please spread this.

You cannot define people out of existence, it’s literally impossible. Legally you can take away our rights, but you will NOT take away who we are. We will identify ourselves however we choose, and your fucked up ideals will never take that away.

‘Transgender’ Could Be Defined Out of Existence Under Trump Administration

Trump Administration Eyes Defining Transgender Out of Existence – The New York Times

WASHINGTON — The Trump administration is considering narrowly defining gender as a biological, immutable condition determined by genitalia at birth, the most drastic move yet in a governmentwide effort to roll back recognition and protections of transgender people under federal civil rights law.

A series of decisions by the Obama administration loosened the legal concept of gender in federal programs, including in education and health care, recognizing gender largely as an individual’s choice and not determined by the sex assigned at birth. The policy prompted fights over bathrooms, dormitories, single-sex programs and other arenas where gender was once seen as a simple concept. Conservatives, especially evangelical Christians, were incensed.

Now the Department of Health and Human Services is spearheading an effort to establish a legal definition of sex under Title IX, the federal civil rights law that bans gender discrimination in education programs that receive government financial assistance, according to a memo obtained by The New York Times.

The department argued in its memo that key government agencies needed to adopt an explicit and uniform definition of gender as determined “on a biological basis that is clear, grounded in science, objective and administrable.” The agency’s proposed definition would define sex as either male or female, unchangeable, and determined by the genitals that a person is born with, according to a draft reviewed by The Times. Any dispute about one’s sex would have to be clarified using genetic testing.

This is so fucking heartbreaking and scary.
